The fight between the Canadian Pacific and the Great Northern for control of British Columbia territory has been compromised. According to high railroad officials. Lord Strathcona, who has money Invested In both systems, brought about the compro mise. The Great Northern will be permitted to build Into Vancouver by way of Hope Mountain, and the Canadian will have a trackage agreement providing for the use of the Victoria, Vancouver & Eastern and Similklmecn branch of the Great Northern to reach Its tracks at Hope. The Cana dian is to withdraw all opposition to the amendments the Hill Interests want to the charter of the Victoria, Vancouver & Eastern. Neither of the roads give up any build ing plans, but It is mutually agreed that rates are to be protected in the future In both Vancouver and Washington. The agreement does not go far enough to pro vide for a division of territory, but there "will be no further reprisals. J. J. Hill began the fight seven years ago, when he built into Rossland and Nel eon and projected his lines into the Slocan and Boundary districts. The sharpest fight, though, has been over the construc tion of the Victoria, Vancouver & Eastern, which enters into a district which both roads have wanted in Southern British Columbia and the northern tier of coun ties In Washington.

PORTLAND. May 2L (To the Edltor.) "We understand that a new ordinance has recently been enacted by the Council, which declares that all dressed calves, hogs, tc, must be inspected by a new official or set of officials ere they may be offered for sale. We are not aware as to whether or not this hew measure has been signed by the Mayor, but. with all due respect to the members of the Council, we trust that it has not. and we hope that it will not be come a law. and on the grounds only that It would be a useless measure and an unnecessary burden on the people of the City of Portland. It is our understanding that all calves sent In from the country killers to local butchers or commission merchants must be carted by the receiver to a certain point and passed upon by the Inspector or inspectors; that the heart, lungs and liver must accompany each carcass, etc If the heart, lungs and liver must still be attached to the carcass, it -will in many cases result In a damaged condition to the meat, for it is customary to remove everything, with the exception of the liver (and in many Instances that also), that the carcass may be thoroughly washed and aerated. We understand that after inspection the carcass may be carted back to the shop or store and offered for sale. It may sell In a few minutes, and again it may be some time ere a sale is effected. It may be sold to a butcher in an hour and taken by him to his shop, where it lies for days and possibly spoils. We cannot see that Inspection, as above described, has accom plished anything except to remove from the city treasury a certain fat salary or number of salaries. We want it under stood that we believe thoroughly in In spection of meats and other food prod ucts, but we believe that this ordinance is an effort wrongly directed; that Inspec tion should take place at the butcher shop and at a time as close as possible to the moment the meat Is delivered to the con sumer. We are large handlers of veals and dressed hogs, and If the ordinance be comes a law we are affected, but by in convenience .and delay only. But we be lieve there is no need for either, and that an eas3 fat and unnecessary job is beiryr provided for some one or set of lad -vlduals. A it la thucht by some that tbe rdlaaace Is a move la another direction:. that it is ut eiion. to prevent ine saie oi veais aira dressed hogs that are killed in the coun try; that it Is an effort to drive this buI- ness all into the hands of the large local killers. The writer does not believe this, however, although it does bear certain Bupplcious earmarks. As a matter of fact, the sooner dressed the refrigerator of the retailer, the better " a j-vi cvefjune concernea, iruin me shipper to the consumer. from the side of the mothers sucking calves that have never eaten a bite of feed, transport them 100 miles or so in a crowded hot car (after a carload has been lugemerj, nanaie mem in nerve racking stockyards and get good results condition of the meat from a young ani mal of this sort that has been starved for about a week and battered from one end of the Valley to the other before It iwLiics me aoaitoir.
